Online ministry has been called a new frontier, but what are its limits? As we’ve experimented with livestreamed services and hybrid courses, we’ve learned a lot about what it takes to really build an online community. In this conversation we share some of those learnings and reflect on what it means to really pastor an online congregation, the true value of social media, and how to find out who is really joining your church online. As Trinity enters a new era of online ministry, we’re celebrating all that God has done and getting honest about the new directions we’re being called to pursue. Whether you’re part of the Trinity family or just someone interested in learning more about the reality of online ministry, tune in for a discussion full of helpful reflections on where we’ve been and where we’re headed next.

Life is full of uncertainty and disappointment. Where can I find hope? Hope takes time, it's hard earned and yet it's a surprising gift, it can come even in our darkest moments. In this sermon Rev. Sandra Seaborn (VP of Programs at Yonge Street Mission) unpacks Luke 24 to show how the disciples discussion on the Road to Emmaus is a lesson in how to wrestle with hope. When we're dealing with disappointment, big questions and misplaced hopes, Jesus appears to point us beyond this current moment to a true and deeper hope.

Faith grows one step at a time. Donald shares each step that he took from coming back to church for the first time to learning to pray and being baptized. From financial struggles to health challenges and parenting, God has been present in every situation and used the church family to provide everything Donald’s family needed. We also chat about some meaningful people and Bible stories that provide questions and comfort to keep us growing in our faith.

Does faith mean that I shouldn't have any doubts? What if your doubts are actually the key to having perfect faith? The truth is we all have questions, what matters is not that you doubt, but what you do with it. In this sermon Dr. Justin Stratis from Wycliffe College unpacks Mark 9 where one father prays "I believe, help my unbelief". This simple prayer shows us the power of faith in the face of doubt and how turning to Jesus doesn't eliminate our questions and worries, but gives us a way through. Whether you are feeling full of faith or stuck in doubt, listen in for some important reminds about how to walk through life's darkness and doubt with confidence in Christ.

You don’t have enough time, money or energy to give - or so you think. But what if giving more away actually freed you to receive more from others? In this podcast we unpack one of the most overlooked laws from the Bible. The gleaning principle in Deuteronomy 24 teaches us valuable lessons about generosity, budgeting, and community that challenges our individualistic culture built on scarcity and hustle. But how does this principle work in the real world? How can you practice generosity when you’re drowning in student debt and saving for the future? We wrestle with creating new definitions of success and inviting others to practice generosity with us. We explore the many ways that we can give - our money, our time, our attention, our talents - and uncover the surprising power of planned giving for unlocking stronger relationships, greater happiness and sustainable systems. If you’re tired of chasing the American dream or you’re just looking for practical tips to live more generously, this conversation is for you.

When prayers go unanswered and dreams are unfulfilled, how do we keep hoping? When it seems like our hard work is useless, sometimes we need to remember that we won't always be the ones to reap the fruit of our labor. In this sermon, Rob unpacks John 4 where Jesus reminds us that the harvest is coming and is in fact already here. How can we prepare for the harvest and celebrate when it comes? How should we respond when it seems like we'll never get to see the harvest? And what about that great harvest at the end of the age? Just like different crops are harvested at different times, God is working in different ways and different times to bring us all home. Whether you're in a season of waiting or you're already celebrating, listen in for encouragement and wisdom to keep us going until we bring the harvest home.

How can I share my faith? Why should I even try? Faith is like a chain - each link is connected to the next. Whether you’re the first one in your family to believe, or you come from generations of Christians, we can’t follow Jesus alone. Drawing on Deuteronomy 6, this podcast unpacks how faith gets passed from one person to another in ordinary moments and intentional reminders. We talk about the people and resources that have shaped our faith and the ways that we’re sharing our faith with others. We also talk about the importance of setting up habits and visual cues to remind us of God’s faithfulness in our darkest moments. If you’re looking to strengthen your connection to God and others, or if you just have questions about how to share your faith - this podcast is for you.

Modern farmers want to be efficient, harvesting down to the last kernel. But, God commanded Israel not to harvest every last corner of the field. The edges were to be left for the poor, the immigrant, and the vulnerable. This week, Mike Messenger explores how generosity was never meant to be an optional extra, but something built into the very way God’s people live. The field was never entirely theirs - and what God places in our hands is still meant to bless our neighbours.
